Description and Table of Contents
Description
With the advent of the PC, the Internet, modems, the compact disc and digital TV broadcasting, the analog world is being slowly replaced by the new digital world. Everyone knows about this trend, but few understand it. Much of what is happening with the technology is counterintuitive - even to an engineer. UNDERSTANDING DIGITAL TRANSMISSION AND RECORDING explains the essence of digital communication and recording for working engineers, students and other professionals working across industries. Even the communications engineer who is steeped in the mathematics of the field will find this book helpful in understanding the larger picture.
